Our Approach

The challenges you face

Every transformation journey is unique but there are common characteristics that need to be overcome. Typical challenges include the need to clarify the vision, understand and evaluate options, align stakeholder groups, gain stakeholder commitment, engage with a broad range of staff and shape the work ahead.

Our solutions have been developed to help our clients overcome these challenges. We typically work with our clients to clarify goals then bring together internal capabilities and those of selected partners through output focused collaborative working, maximising the value of every interaction and building momentum progressively.

Capability development – embedding better ways of working within your organisation

The truth is that too many change initiatives fail

Numerous studies over several decades consistently show that a lack of engagement, skills, experience, and clarity among others often prove fatal. An IBM study involving more than 1,500 change management executives across 15 countries showed that 59% of projects aimed at achieving business change don’t fully meet their objectives. And Computer Weekly has reported that of 421 IT projects it examined, 75% were late, over budget or under-delivered.

That’s not good enough. And that’s why we work differently.
